Intermediate First Aid Training Vancouver — What You’ll Learn

Upon successful completion, you’ll receive a WorkSafeBC-approved Intermediate First Aid Certificate, valid for three years and recognized across British Columbia.

If you’ve already completed Basic First Aid and CPR Training or Emergency First Aid, this is your next step toward stronger competency.
